The ScooterBlog

Our first tournament of 2005 is schedule and ready to go! But this doesn’t mean that it’s just “in the can”, we need your help and can’t wait for you to sign up!

Our Halo 2 Singles & Doubles event will be happening once again on Saturday January 22nd starting at 11:30 AM! We’re hoping to have huge crowds and huge prizes, and to ensure it, we’re guaranteeing at least $300 in cash and prizes for the event!

Instead of me explaining it, I’ll let our website do the work for me! You can look at all the tournament details at: http://www.gamejunkie.com/tournaments/halo2/index.html.

If you have questions about the event, feel free to e-mail me or pixel@gamejunkie.com. We hope to see you there!

Since this is a user-friendly blog, I thought I would answer our good friend Baconninja on his thought that if I could have that good of a 15 minutes, how good must an hour be!

Well, I have to admit that nothing is perfect. Sadly, in an hour, I can get a flat tire!

That was directly after finishing that blog post. I was coming out from Louisville’s office to my car to find that the rear tire’s gauge was red, and the pressure was low …. and the tire was starting to go flat. I thought it was a slow leak, so I drove it a half mile to get to the 2 gas stations before getting on I-65 North. The first had 2 people asking me for money, and me lying that I had none (and then putting 50 cents into a broken air dispenser).

The second gas station’s air pump was broken, and at this point, it was closing in on a full flat. So I called Triple-A (cause if you didn’t know, I’m an idiot with cars), they changed it to the spare, I drove 100 miles home, and then got it fixed. All this and I think my car is now officially over 100,000 miles.

And oh yes, my XBox broke! I went downstairs to play Halo 2 on Sunday only to find my switch for the chip inside of it for my emulators and media player was detected. Needless to say, Microsoft isn’t a big fan of that and especially when you go online. So, there’s now a new XBox in my car, and I’m going to need to be a few games lighter in the pockets soon, so I’ll trade in some of the games I *gasp* don’t play, to cover some of my future costs.

Thankfully, the JunkieCheck is in my hands now. Every bit helps, cause gas to Columbus is of the utomost priority!

And this tells you how sky high my happiness is. All this happens two months ago, and my whole being begins to break down and crumble. Today, it’s a minor annoyance that I knew would get better and not affect me beyond today. Makes me believe that love and caring IS the ultimate high!
